Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup butter, softened to room temperature
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 eggs
- 2 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 cups rolled oats
- 2 cups rice krispie cereal
- 1–2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Preheating ensures your cookies bake evenly.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Set this mixture aside for later.
- Cream together the sugars and butter: In a separate large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream 1 cup of softened butter, 1 cup of brown sugar, and 1 cup of sugar for about 2-3 minutes until it’s smooth and creamy. This step is crucial for giving your cookies that light and fluffy texture.
- Add the eggs and vanilla: Beat in 2 eggs and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Mix well for an additional 2 minutes, ensuring that the mixture is fully combined and fluffy.
- Combine the dry and wet ingredients: Gradually add the flour mixture into the butter and sugar mixture, mixing just enough to incorporate everything.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients: With a large spoon, gently fold in 2 cups of rolled oats, 2 cups of Rice Krispie cereal, and 1-2 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Be careful not to overmix—the cereal should stay crispy.
- Scoop the dough: Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to place even amounts of dough onto a prepared cookie sheet, leaving enough space between each cookie.
- Bake: Place the tray into your preheated oven and bake for 9-10 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden brown. You want the centers to be soft while the edges have that slight crunch.
- Cool and serve: Let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Then, enjoy!
